The holidays are the most wonderful time of the year for many of us. But imagine what it’s like for a kid who lacks even basic necessities, like a good pair of shoes or winter boots.
These children are often bullied, they feel shame and embarrassment, and they suffer from health problems—simply because they don’t have a good pair of shoes.
For many children, shoesare at the very bottom of their holiday wishlist. But for the kids we serve, they make all the difference.
New shoes means opportunity.
It means they get to attend that after school program they’ve been looking forward to, the choice to try out for the basketball team because they actually have shoes that fit their feet, but most of all, it means they have the freedom to just be a kid — in the classroom and on the playground.
No child should suffer because they don’t have a good pair of shoes.
Give generously, and feel good knowing you’re providing comfort and joy to a child in need. Your donation helps support our 4EveryKid initiative and Soles4Souls’ free distribution program.
